Sweet potato wrap/ flat bread

We have a picky eater at home. So I am always looking into ways to make my daughter eat more vegetables. This is an easy recipe for a flat bread with hidden sweet potatoes. We love the taste so this is why I am sharing it with you.

Sweet potato wraps



 Ingredients (8-10 Wraps)

    Sweet Potato: 2 pieces
    White flour: 300 gr / 2-3 cups
    Creamy cheese:  1 table spoon
    Olive oil: 4 table spoons
    Backing powder: 1 small spoon
    Sugar: 1 small spoon
    Salt: 1 small spoon



 Preparation:
1) Peal and cut the sweet potatoes. Steam them until they are soft.
2) Using a fork, mash the sweet potatoes. Add also the oil and the cheese
3) Mix the remaining ingredients, starting from the sugar, the salt and the baking powder. Add the flour slowly as it may take less than what expected (depends on humidity, how large the sweet potatoes are, if you added more oil ect) 
4) Keep mixing the flour little by little until you obtain a non sticky dough. This step should last at least 10 minutes. If you feel it is sticky add more flour.
5) When you have the dough, divide it into small balls that will make the wraps. Cover it and leave it rest for at least 30 minutes.
6) Using some more flour, roll out the dough into  a round shape. It should fit the frying pan where you will cook them.
7) Choose a wide non-stick frying pan, possibly with a think bottom. Put it in medium-high heat. Wait a bit until it is hot. No oil is needed. Place one of the wraps on top. Use a fork to make holes all over the wrap. Cook it about 2 minutes each side. The timing in indicative because it will depend a lot on the heat, how thick is your bread and the pan you choose. You know it is done when you see black points all over it (see the picture for some guidance).
 8) Cook all the wraps and then serve with your favorite ingredients. How about some cheese, ham, cherry tomatoes and avocado?

I also made a video to show you more in detail how I make it.
